Victory Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) About the LWRCi rifles, here is a cropped reference pic...and by reference pic, I mean Mods, don't kill me for this one. Pictured: A3 w/Magpul and Ergo FDE. Also LaRue UDE, but that is another story. Picture taken under natural light. LWRCi doesn't consider their rifles to be FDE, which is why they call them MRE...Multi Region Earth. It looks to me, like FDE, but with a hint of green. It is not as bright as FDE, which, in my humble opinion, makes it more effective. And Corps mentioned the different shades of MRE that the LWRC rifles have had...here is another cropped reference picture: The newer REPR rifles will be a gold-ish color. Those pics are available on the LWRC forum. -Vic Edited February 18, 2010 by Victory Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Foxhound Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Nice! Whats the base? And what happened to the M14?!? G&P Gearbox. Everything else is all new/Aftermarket M14 was put on hold for a bit. Maybe use my tax return to build it into a good DMR. Moste likely in a few months though. If the T-1 works good, then keep it. Id rather use a optic that works than one that looks cooler. I think it looks amazing. MAID, AFG,CTR/ACS/UBR stock would look better, but i dont think you want it to magpully.

newhotness Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 My two blasters for the weekend. JG SBR And A CA M15 SL Both Guns Are About 90% Done Accessory Wise, As They Both Share The SF. Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 kojak: how do you like that UBR? i love my real one, considering an airsoft version... -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 On the subject of UBR's, i hear you need to remove the whole damn thing to change a lipo in the stock tube - Is this correct, and is removing said UBR a lot of work? I love the look and the concept, but if it requires dismantling half the gun to replace the battery i think i'll give it a miss. Link to post Share on other sites

hwagan Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 M727 is win. AK pistol grip on AR15 is rape of the eyes. Link to post Share on other sites

Arion Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 to Leejinwen: your bolt stop and mag-release buttons are a tad small. They must be tough to finger. to Aznriptide859: looks very Blackhawk Down. Thumbs up! Old school is refreshing for the eyes in this world of 12" rail systems, billet lowers and 300 lumens LED tac-lights. Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I can't deny the grip is original... out of place, but definitely unique Link to post Share on other sites
Reincarnation... Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 [sarcasm]OMG, you raped that AK so badly. At least you keep the pistol grip.[/sarcasm] Seems like you beat Troy Industries to the punch of an AR AK-styled pistol grip. Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 For me personally it looks horribly horribly wrong, however I applaud the fact you've managed to get it on there, certainly an ironic 180 from all the AK purists who moan about M4 bits going on the guns they like.

Snigel Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Well, I can't take all the credit for it, got help from Rufs2 (Think he's banned from here now ). So MODDAN, watch your mouth! I like AKs, miss the one I parted with to get the WE Stupid M4, eating my money! Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Real nice SPR lee. Who makes the handguard? Link to post Share on other sites
Matthiaz Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Got my M727 back today, did a little more artificial wear and working on the GB. Your handguards look like the thicker M4A1 ones... Or is it just the picture? Anyway, nice replica! I approve Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I'm pretty sure they are M4 guards... From my understanding quite a lot of the earlier carbines were a bit of a mish-mash of parts, so i dunno if it's incorrect to the original... Still, on a gun that nice, who cares? Also - MY FRIKKIN' MRP ARRIVES ON SATURDAY. I'm so happy i might cry. Link to post Share on other sites

Also - MY FRIKKIN' MRP ARRIVES ON SATURDAY. I'm so happy i might cry. I care, because the M733 style handguards are just 10 x sexier! That would lift the replica from "awesome" to "god made"! Also - congratulations on your MRP Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 That's a fair point, they do make it look a little nicer - Ideally with a strip of gaffa tape around them for added awesomeness. And cheers! I'll be whoring it all over this thread once it turns up, as well as reviewing it. All after i've finished cuddling it, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 ^Can't wait. Yes, they are M4 handguards. I purchased some JG M733 ones, only to find they're longer. Another member told me that RS M733 handguards are the same length as M4 ones, but thinner - they just take some modding to do. Sadly I don't want to put anymore money in this project Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 What front end are you using? I can safely tell you G&P M733 guards are the same length as G&P M4 guards, should that be any help - I had M4 handguards on my G&P M733, both sets fitted perfectly with no movement.
